What do you think trades should be worth 2.0

[jezz]

I think it is time to revisit what coupons are worth. The information on the first page is over two years old, and costs have changed. For example, stamps have gone up in price three times and now costs .66c (including the tax). On the first page it states:
"$50 hand picked coupons - 10 stamps / $5 GC"
Why in the world would you spend $6.60 to get 10 stamps to send instead of sending the $5 gift card?

The icoke points are also way out of whack. The most value for your pins is the two Cinema tickets. It takes 38437 points to get this.

"icoke PINs (based on $5GC/FPC being 6000 icoke /12 pins)"
That means each pin costs .42c in GC.

To get 38437 points, you need 77 pins. 77 pins x .42c each pin =$32.29 in Gift cards. I know I sure can get more than 2 cinema tickets with $32.29.

And if you are looking at the other rewards, the cost equivalent is worse.

its about 62 pins for 2x fpc movie tickets and most value them at around $10 each. I've seen a lot of trades at $5 gc/ticket which is at least half price movies. The expires are soooo long that you are pretty much guaranteed to be able to use them or gift them at Christmas.

Hi everyone! I won a year's worth of pop from Sobeys and I'm looking to sell/trade these FPCs and I'm not sure what to ask for them...
I have 365 copies of these FPCs (12 x 355ml of a variety of soft drinks)



Any suggestions would be very much appreciated!

I don't generally buy pop for our house but don't the packs of 12 go on sale 3/$10. If so then the FPC would be worth $3.34

If the OP of the pop FPCs for a year is only trading for GCs, then I would say the value should be lower than $3.34. After all, why would I pay that in the form of a GC if I can just wait for a sale (that come along fairly routinely) and pick them up at that price myself?

Keep in mind the traders for these FPCs are not only limited by province (Ontario) but also by store (Sobeys). So the supply vs. demand curve isn't as steep as one might think.

That's insane that they consider 1 case a day a year's supply!!

You do not pay $ for $ GC to FPC though, you pay 30-40% of value in GC, so $1-1.50 GC per FPC

[angel_2011]

that's what i was thinking too FP - however, apparently the high bid is $10 GC for 3 FPCs

[leopakes]

If you still have these for trade please pm me!

I dont know what is fair anymore...
Someone messaged me for 21 of the $3.50 wub2 hetbal essences. They asked how much I'd want in a gc, I asked for $5 gc for ALL 21 coupons. Apparently I was asking too much.

I think thats more than fair, no?!?

It depends on where you live though. Pop doesn't go on sale for that cheap out west.

These coupons are valid only at Ontario sobeys

I had a really rude person message me, so I'm hoping to get some guidance from this thread.

I was offering $12 in HV coupons (when these items are on sale, this HV coupon becomes FPC), in exchange for 2 SYB pins (I guessed the value of these at $3 or so). So I was offering $12 in HV coupons. Yes, double their value. I got this reply:

wow greedy! that is ridiculous

And that's why I don't trade on SC anymore.

Since I haven't traded in a while, have these values changed?

Sounds like a message that I received recently.....

I believe the most expensive item you can select from SYB is the coffee which has a max value of $5 or $5.99 (sorry I have not redeemed any) So IMO even if they value this for that item they are still getting either slightly higher or the same amount.

To me without knowing what the HV coupons are it seems like a fair trade.

It would depend on the HV coupons but since I do not get the coffee with SYB pins worth it to me
